Watching Season 0 episodes are like reading a rough draft, or listening to garage band recordings. However it must be understood that without the fans that grew from this era(pre-internet BTW), the cable channels wouldn't have given the show a chance.

I find the early episodes from ssason 0 quite enjoyable for their own quirky style and sensability. They are definitely more of an acquired taste for the moore seasoned MST3K fan, it takes some time getting used to Tom Servo's voice. I really liked some of their riffing and this movie.

The writing on the segments on this episode seem to be more polished, straight forward. It would be interesting to know the back story about which episodes they intended to be submitted for awards or used by the studio as a high example of what the show is about.
